This is SO ANNOYING!!!! I use a NOOK and the mobil app. I hate that I have someone deciding for me how to use my space on my phone. Isn't this technically property? I want to put up a No Trespassing sign - enter by permission ONLY!! :icon_evil:

Not sure what yo are complaining about. When you accept the app, there is a list of 'permissions'. If you do not like the 'permissions' do not install the app. One such 'permission' is modifying storage.

Every app that uses a data file of some kind needs to put the somewhere on the phone! I am not sure why you are singling out the NOOK app, as this is common practice.

The books have to be stored somewhere on the device. On My OG Droid, the Nook books were on the micro-SD card, while on the Droid 3, they are in the 16gb internal storage.

I wish that the developers of the apps would update the app to recognize the existence of 2 storage areas (sd cards), as is found on the Droid 3 and other phones, enabling you to choose which sd card you want used, either internal or external.

Not sure where you missed my point but it is.... the new app BOOKS is now laoded on my phone, this is the subject of this thread. I didn't ask for it, didn't want it and don't like it being force fed. I have the NOOK app because I put it there - that was my choice and I put my books on my SD. Not the Google Book app. From what I am seeing there is no way to un-install or to stop updates. Want to chastise me again?

Yes, I will as you are only complaining only about the Book app and not about all the other Bloatware on the phone?
